Workshop: Seeing Color in the Garden

  • Sehmel Homestead Park 10123 78th Avenue Northwest Gig Harbor, WA, 98332 United States (map)

No experience needed, all materials included

In this workshop, Lorene will talk about color, it’s role in a pleasing landscape, and how her daily practice, which she posts on Instagram @seeing_colorinthegarden, has introduced an expansiveness to the way she views the world. All students will participate in a hands-on exercise using watercolors to record colors found in fragments of the natural world, a tiny blossom, a leaf, or a twig. This is not botanical illustration, but an exercise in learning to see with fresh eyes, and an opportunity to slow down, focus, and savor the season.

Following a brief introduction, using supplied materials, participants will create a nature-based color study. No prior art experience necessary.
